API for AWS Invoicing

ABAP Package /AWS1/API_BII
ABAP SDK "TLA" BII
ABAP Interface /AWS1/IF_BII

The "TLA" is a Three Letter Abbreviation that appears in ABAP class names, data dictionary objects and other ABAP objects throughout the AWS SDK for SAP ABAP. The TLA for AWS Invoicing is BII. This TLA helps squeeze ABAP objects into the 30-character length limit of the ABAP data dictionary.

Installation

To install the AWS SDK for SAP ABAP, import the Core transport, along with the transport for the Invoicing module and other API modules you are interested in. A few modules are included in the Core transport itself. For more information, see the Developer Guide guide.

About The Service

Amazon Web Services Invoice Configuration

You can use Amazon Web Services Invoice Configuration APIs to programmatically create, update, delete, get, and list invoice units. You can also programmatically fetch the information of the invoice receiver. For example, business legal name, address, and invoicing contacts.

You can use Amazon Web Services Invoice Configuration to receive separate Amazon Web Services invoices based your organizational needs. By using Amazon Web Services Invoice Configuration, you can configure invoice units that are groups of Amazon Web Services accounts that represent your business entities, and receive separate invoices for each business entity. You can also assign a unique member or payer account as the invoice receiver for each invoice unit. As you create new accounts within your Organizations using Amazon Web Services Invoice Configuration APIs, you can automate the creation of new invoice units and subsequently automate the addition of new accounts to your invoice units.

Amazon Web Services Procurement Portal Preferences

You can use Amazon Web Services Procurement Portal Preferences APIs to programmatically create, update, delete, get, and list procurement portal connections and e-invoice delivery settings. You can also programmatically fetch and modify the status of procurement portal configurations. For example, SAP Business Network or Coupa connections, configure e-invoice delivery and purchase order retrieval features.

You can use Amazon Web Services Procurement Portal Preferences to connect e-invoice delivery to your procurement portals based on your organizational needs. By using Amazon Web Services Procurement Portal Preferences, you can configure connections to SAP Business Network and Coupa procurement portals that retrieve purchase orders and deliver Amazon Web Services invoices on the same day they are generated. You can also set up testing environments to validate invoice delivery without affecting live transactions, and manage contact information for portal setup and support.

Administrative users should understand that billing read-only policies will show all procurement portal connection details. Review your IAM policies to ensure appropriate access controls are in place for procurement portal preferences.

Amazon Web Services Invoice Management

You can use Amazon Web Services Invoice Management APIs to programmatically list invoice summaries and get invoice documents. You can also programmatically fetch invoice documents with S3 pre-signed URLs.

You can use Amazon Web Services Invoice Management to access invoice information based on your organizational needs. By using Amazon Web Services Invoice Management, you can retrieve paginated lists of invoice summaries that include invoice metadata such as invoice IDs, amounts, and currencies without downloading documents. You can also download invoice documents in PDF format using S3 pre-signed URLs with built-in expiration. As you manage invoices across your organization using Amazon Web Services Invoice Management APIs, you can create invoice retrieval processes and integrate invoice data into your financial systems.

Service endpoint

You can use the following endpoints for Amazon Web Services Invoice Configuration, Amazon Web Services Procurement Portal Preferences, and Amazon Web Services Invoice Management:

  • https://invoicing.us-east-1.api.aws

Using the SDK

In your code, create a client using the SDK module for AWS Invoicing, which is created with factory method /AWS1/CL_BII_FACTORY=>create(). In this example we will assume you have configured an SDK profile in transaction /AWS1/IMG called ZFINANCE.

DATA(go_session)   = /aws1/cl_rt_session_aws=>create( 'ZFINANCE' ).
DATA(go_bii)       = /aws1/cl_bii_factory=>create( go_session ).

Your variable go_bii is an instance of /AWS1/IF_BII, and all of the operations in the AWS Invoicing service are accessed by calling methods in /AWS1/IF_BII.

API Operations

For an overview of ABAP method calls corresponding to API operations in AWS Invoicing, see the Operation List.

Factory Method

/AWS1/CL_BII_FACTORY=>create( )

Creates an object of type /AWS1/IF_BII.

IMPORTING

Optional arguments:

iv_protocol TYPE /aws1/rt_protocol /AWS1/RT_PROTOCOL

Domain /AWS1/RT_ACCOUNT_ID
Primitive Type NUMC

io_session TYPE REF TO /aws1/cl_rt_session_base /AWS1/CL_RT_SESSION_BASE

Domain /AWS1/RT_ACCOUNT_ID
Primitive Type NUMC

iv_region TYPE /aws1/rt_region_id /AWS1/RT_REGION_ID

Domain /AWS1/RT_ACCOUNT_ID
Primitive Type NUMC

iv_custom_endpoint TYPE /aws1/rt_endpoint /AWS1/RT_ENDPOINT

Domain /AWS1/RT_ACCOUNT_ID
Primitive Type NUMC

RETURNING

oo_client TYPE REF TO /aws1/if_bii /AWS1/IF_BII

/AWS1/IF_BII represents the ABAP client for the Invoicing service, representing each operation as a method call. For more information see the API Page page.

Configuring Programmatically

DATA(lo_config) = DATA(go_bii)->get_config( ).

lo_config is a variable of type /AWS1/CL_BII_CONFIG. See the documentation for /AWS1/CL_BII_CONFIG for details on the settings that can be configured.

Paginators

Paginators for AWS Invoicing can be created via get_paginator() which returns a paginator object of type /AWS1/IF_BII_PAGINATOR. The operation method that is being paginated is called using the paginator object, which accepts any necessary parameters to provide to the underlying API operation. This returns an iterator object which can be used to iterate over paginated results using has_next() and get_next() methods.

Details about the paginator methods available for service AWS Invoicing can be found in interface /AWS1/IF_BII_PAGINATOR.
